Lightsabers and Lollipops

so i finished reading john grisham's book "playing for pizza."
well, listened to.
shut up.
i absorbed it.
anyway.
it was a pretty good book.
it strayed from his usual law/suspense books that become movies that aren't as good as the book.
and i thought this one would make another fun movie that wasn't as good as the book.
and then i thought about how tired we should be of sports underdog movies.
we have done them to death.
don't get me wrong, i think these are some of the most enjoyable and heartwarming films you can waste away your lazy sunday afternoons watching.
RUDY! RUDY! RUDY!
but then it hit me, we have given up and just churned out cheesy sports movies and replaced the actors with animals.
i am of course aiming at the "air bud" series.
which i really don't have a right to make fun of because i have never seen a single one of them.
at this point i refuse to watch them cuz now they've gone beyond the sports genre and we've shot the dogs into space.
it's only a matter of time before we ship them off to the white house and make "obama buddies."
you heard it here first, people.
i'm not attacking these movies, sports or buddies or both.
we need feel good, inspiring movies.
and heaven knows, we need clean family fun movies that MY kids can watch and not ask about the new and naughty words that they only overhear daddy saying while he's trying to fix his computer.
ah well.
i should stop there.
that should be all the stuff i thought about while i was driving and listening to audiobooks today.
you guys would get a lot more funny stuff outta me if i needed to have the latest gadgets and my cell phone was more than just, well, a phone.
and since i really have nothing real to blame for this i'm going to blame the movie, "teen wolf too."
i just think a lot of the world's problems can be traced back to that movie.
so there.
